y0, y1, yn — Bessel functions of the second kind

  #include <math.h>
  double y0(double x);
  double y1(double x);
  double yn(int n, double x);

The y0/(), /y1/(), and /yn/() functions shall compute Bessel functions of /x of the second kind of orders 0, 1, and n, respectively.

An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept/(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if /errno is non-zero or /fetestexcept/(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.

Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the relevant Bessel value of x of the second kind.

If x is NaN, NaN shall be returned.

If the x argument to these functions is negative, -HUGE_VAL or NaN shall be returned, and a domain error may occur.

If x is 0.0, -HUGE_VAL shall be returned and a pole error may occur.

If the correct result would cause underflow, 0.0 shall be returned and a range error may occur.

If the correct result would cause overflow, -HUGE_VAL or 0.0 shall be returned and a range error may occur.

These functions may fail if:

Domain Error

The value of x is negative.

If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [EDOM]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised.

Pole Error

The value of x is zero.

If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the divide-by-zero floating-point exception shall be raised.

Range Error

The correct result would cause overflow.

If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the overflow floating-point exception shall be raised.

Range Error

The value of x is too large in magnitude, or the correct result would cause underflow.

If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised.

The following sections are informative.

None.

On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.

None.

None.
